Tricks ofthe Trade underway even after the editors and staff had been desig- nated. First, the design and color for the cover were chosen. Then the overall plan of the hook was carefully worked out. According to plan, Neal Smoyer, editor, assigned to a student a certain section to organize, so that the labor of' the staff was somewhat divided. Preparing copy, proof- reading copy, proofreading, making dummies, and correct- ing details became constant tasks of the yearbook staff. Photographing all important events and phases of school life was the difficult job of Bob Koch and Bob Mason. Getting in practice for next year, Dick Easton also took many of the photos.
